LOGINBOOOOOMMM…“Your footwork is too slow! Don’t focus too much on the striking power at the tip of your spear!” Xu Lia’s father shouted as he trained Tian Sen deep inside the Monster Forest.Several days had passed since he brought Tian Sen into the forest to train him through actual combat and teach him how to wield a spear properly.Although his expression was stern and unfriendly, deep down, he was already extremely satisfied with a disciple like Tian Sen. Now that Tian Sen was focusing on spear techniques, he was confident that his adopted grandson would eventually surpass him in the art of the spear.Taking every word from Xu Lia’s father seriously, Tian Sen corrected each of his faulty movements. As he felt the spear intent his grandfather had taught him about, he was clearly satisfied with the strength he had gained so far.Moreover, he had discovered that practicing with the spear every day allowed him to gradually understand the essence behind each movement he was taught.While
King Chu was utterly shocked to discover that the Second Prince was not his biological son. The situation was truly bizarre, especially since he had personally witnessed his wife giving birth to the Second Prince. However, with undeniable evidence now right before his eyes, he could no longer deny the truth.We Yan sighed as he watched King Chu struggle with his confusion. He wondered whether the king believed his wife had deceived him or whether someone else had managed to trick him.After everything was settled, King Chu decided to investigate the mystery surrounding the Second Prince, who had turned out not to be his biological son. Naturally, this matter had nothing to do with Tian Sen, but King Chu dragged him into it anyway, forcing the young man to work the following day.“Haaa, so why did you bring me along too, Father?” Tian Sen asked his father, who appeared busy sorting through all the information gathered by his subordinates.His father said nothing and merely gave his son
“You really know how to stop me? Hahaha! It turns out I truly misjudged you, Tian Sen! But in the end, this world is cruel. Do you really think that even if you don’t die at my hands, you’ll be able to survive at the hands of someone else?”The Second Prince no longer had the strength to fight back, but that did not mean he believed he had lost. In his eyes, this world was nothing but an illusion that would eventually come to an end for all human beings. Everything in this world was like a blank sheet of paper. Even if nothing was ever written on it, it would still eventually be destroyed.And behind every ray of light, there would always be darkness lurking in the human heart. So why was Tian Sen being so hypocritical about his ambitions? Why was he so confident in himself? In the end, he would die just like everyone else.“You’re right. There are still plenty of people in this world who are far better than me. But isn’t it perfectly natural for people to strive to become the best an
The next day, in the late morning, the Second Prince and the surviving traitors were brought to the execution grounds where their punishment would take place.At the front, the king stood above them, staring coldly at all the traitors.Some of them looked terrified when they saw the king.A few even wanted to beg for their lives, but the people showed them no mercy. The crowd hurled insults and curses at them, their voices filled with hatred.Naturally, the king had no sympathy for those who had dared to betray him either.After everything he had done for these nobles, this was the gratitude he received in return.His eyes eventually fell upon the Second Prince.For some reason, the king felt that his son looked extremely strange this time.His eyes were no longer the same as before.They were red.And there was an inexplicable uneasiness in the king's heart as he looked at his son.“King, do you feel it too?”We Yan had already arrived beside the king.Before the prince had been brou
“Yeah... You probably think that our Xu Family isn't on the same level as the four Super Sects, right? Actually, that's not the case at all. Well... let me explain.”Xu Lia's father explained that the Xu Family was actually on equal footing with the four Super Sects.However, their family had always kept a low profile and rarely accepted outsiders as disciples or adopted children.Because of this, many people assumed that the Xu Family was afraid of the four Super Sects and did not dare to make a move against them.But only the four Super Sects themselves knew that an ancient family like the Xu Family had much deeper foundations than they did.Several times, they had attempted to incorporate the Xu Family into their territories.Naturally, the Xu Family fought back.After witnessing just a small portion of the Xu Family's strength, the four Super Sects no longer dared to provoke them.“But the Hundred Kingdoms War has actually existed for a very long time. The reason it exists today i
When We Yan returned, he saw that the two of them had already grown closer, although things still seemed somewhat awkward between them.Seeing this, We Yan felt relieved, especially when he saw his son sitting together with them. It was enough to convince him that their relationship had finally improved.While they were eating, We Yan told them about the Second Prince and how he would be executed tomorrow.Upon hearing this, Tian Sen slightly furrowed his brows, as though something felt wrong.From We Yan's story, it was clear that the Second Prince was fully aware of what he had done, yet he stubbornly refused to admit his crimes.That alone was enough to show how deeply the Second Prince hated the royal family.But why did he hate them so much?We Yan explained that the Second Prince had actually wanted to become king more than anything. However, both his elder brother and younger brother were far better than him.Because of that, the king's attention had naturally been focused more
